I have a script which runs in a couple of minutes including the
upload. It is then
compiled on the Ubuntu launchpad system and I get an e-mail if the
compile fails.
That process takes around an hour as it has to wait in a queue for a
free server.
This is a good system as I can test on systems and architectures I don't have.

They are draft builds of the current svn and are totally unstable, I
don't do any testing other than
as a regular gambas user, the .debs are there purely for convenience
to allow people to run the bleeding-edge code without getting bogged
down in svn and dependencies, and also so gambas3 is ready for
submission to Debian soon after it is officially released,

Unfortunately I can't release gambas3 before Benoit does :-(
